简要总结

TSummary Project Scope: This study aimed to determine the effect of aromatherapy applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue and sleep quality.

Method: The research will be carried out in two stages, qualitative and quantitative, to determine the effect of aromatherapy applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue and sleep quality.

Quantitative Phase of the Research; The application areas and duration of massage will be explained practically by the researcher. Nurses experiencing fatigue and sleep problems in the intensive care unit were treated once a day, 30 minutes before going to bed, for a total of 8 minutes, 4 minutes at the edges of the right and left nostrils, and 4 minutes behind the right and left ears. , for four weeks. It is a randomized controlled, single-blind study conducted to determine the effect of 3% chamomile and 3% lavender oil mixture in the intervention-2 group and 3% vetiver oil in the intervention-2 group on fatigue and sleep quality. Individuals in the placebo control group will be massaged with jojoba oil.

Data in the study; It will be collected with the Personal Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Piper Fatigue Scale, pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Practice Monitoring Schedule-Researcher Form, Practice Monitoring Schedule and Nurse Form (Visual Analog Scale/VAS Scale) and Oil Application. Nurse Opinion Form.

The universe of the research; It will consist of 260 intensive care nurses working on the same shifts in the intensive care units of SBÜ Kayseri City Training and Research Hospital, located in the city center of Kayseri.

The sample size of the study was initially determined as 60 people in total, including 20 people in the intervention group-1, 20 people in the intervention group-2 and 20 people in the placebo group. Taking into account the research data, the selection of people will continue until the sufficient number is reached according to the results of statistical power analysis.

Qualitative phase of the research; At the end of the four-week application, it will be carried out with a total of 15 people, 5 from the intervention-1, intervention-2 and placebo-control groups. Interviews will continue until data saturation is reached.

As a result of the research, it is expected that the fatigue and sleep problems of the individuals in the intervention groups will improve and their sleep quality will increase.

详细描述

结局指标

主要结局

Visual Analog Scale (VAS) -Fatigue

时间窗: up to 3 months

Nurses experiencing fatigue will be asked to mark the point on the VAS that will accurately reflect the severity of fatigue felt at that moment by explaining the scale as "0" meaning I do not feel tired and "10" meaning "I feel very tired". The distance between the point marked by the nurses themselves and the starting point "0" will be measured using a ruler. The distance measurement will be measured in millimeters and will be evaluated as a "fatigue score".

Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PUKI)

时间窗: up to 3 months

In calculating the total PSQI score, a value between 0-21 is obtained by summing the subscales. In total score evaluation; It is evaluated as "5-6= 3 points", "3-4= 2 points", "1-2= 1 point" and "0= 0 points". High scores from the scale indicate poor sleep quality. If the PSQI total score is between 0 and 4, it is defined as "good" sleep quality, and if it is 5 or more, it is considered as "poor" sleep quality.

Piper Fatigue Scale

时间窗: up to 3 months

It consists of 27 items in total. Scale score calculation; The scores of the sub-dimensions are divided by the number of items by adding up the scores of all items in each sub-dimension. In calculating the total fatigue score; It is obtained by adding 22 item scores and dividing by the number of items. High scores obtained from the scale indicate that perceived fatigue is at a high level. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted by Can (2001) and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient was reported as 0.94.
